I am taking the liberty of posting a portion of an e-mail sent to me by a friend, which some of you may have read before. It bears repeating. I do believe we need to stem the tide of ignorance, apathy, and hopelessness that is breading in America with our elections upcoming. This is just one candidate for which any Conservative Christian, law-abiding, patriotic American would see red flags everywhere!! Thank you to my friend Dawn, and to Helen Rosier, for which I believe the credit goes to this piece.
Some of you will recognize the name of Bill Brown. He is a highly respected retired member of the Billy Graham team. And I am blessed to count him as a friend whom I've known a long time. So I take his assessment of Obama very seriously and for that reason accept his challenge to pass this on. I share his concern about the "rock star"image Obama has and watch with growing concern at the celebrity status the media has foisted upon him.

We are witnessing a political phenomenon with Barack Obama of rare magnitude. His speeches have Inspired millions and yet most of his followers have no idea of what he stands for except Platitudes of "Change" or that he says he will be a "Uniter".
The power of speech from a charismatic person truly can be a powerful thing. Certainly Billy Graham had charisma and both his manner of speech and particularly the content changed millions.
On the extreme other hand, the charisma of Adolph Hitler inspired millions and the results were catastrophic.
Barack Obama certainly is no Hitler or a Billy Graham, but for many Americans out there feeling just like a surfer who might be ecstatic and euphoric while riding a tidal wave, the real story is what happens when it hits shore.
Just Some of What Defines Barack Obama:
o He voted against banning partial birth abortion.
o He voted no on notifying parents of minors who get out-of-state abortions.
o Supports affirmative action in Colleges and Government.
o In 2001 he questioned harsh penalties for drug dealing.
o Says he will deal with street level drug dealing as minimum wage affair.
o Admitted marijuana and cocaine use in high school and in college.
o His religious convictions are very murky.
o He is willing to meet with Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Kim Jung Il and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
o Opposed the Patriot Act.
o First bill he signed that was passed was campaign finance reform.
o Voted No on prohibiting law suits against gun manufacturers.
o Supports universal health-care.
o Voted yes on providing habeas corpus for Guantanamo detainees.
o Supports granting driver's licenses to illegal immigrants.
o Supports extending welfare to illegal immigrants.
o Voted yes on comprehensive immigration reform.
o Voted yes on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security.
o Wants to make the minimum wage a "living wage".
o Voted with Democratic Party 96 percent of 251 votes.
o Is a big believer in the separation of church and state.
o Opposed to any efforts to Privatize Social Security and instead supports increasing the amount of tax paid.
o He voted No on repealing the Alternative Minimum Tax
o He voted No on repealing the "Death" Tax
o He wants to raise the Capital Gains Tax.
o Has repeatedly said the surge in Iraq has not succeeded.
o He is ranked as the most liberal senator in the Senate today and that takes some doing.
If you are like most Americans that after examining what he stands for, are truly not in line with his record, it would be prudent to get off the wave or better yet, never get on, before it comes on shore and undermines the very foundations of this great country. We have limited time to save America or the Supreme Court as we know it. Inaction is action.

Taking America Back
Dear Fellow Conservative:
As an American Conservative, I have some sad news to tell you today. I also have some good news that I will share with you.
You have probably noticed that your only choice for president, in this election, is a liberal. I know, some will try to claim some modest level of conservatism but a careful look under the cloak of half truths you will find a liberal standing before you. Recognizing this fact and preparing for the inevitable, barring some miracle, will only help us to rise to the challenge. Now is not the time to turn away or blindly thrust your head in the sand. There is work to be done.
Our congress is another disaster. It cannot accomplish a single task and has stalled our nation. This may too fall to the liberals who are so eager for power. They will quickly remind you of their superior intellect and their determination to save the world through the failed philosophy of socialism. They may strive to make some dramatic changes to our great nation and if we sit back and do nothing, they will succeed.
The good news is that there is a chink in the armor of liberalism. Liberalism demands power and dominance and our constitution puts us in charge. Oh, they will try and put you at ease and say they got it all under control. They may even try to silence the critiques of their grand schemes, but as long as we stick together they will remain impotent.
Keeping power is more important to the liberal then their ideals. They will sacrifice any and all who stand in the way of power. They must come back to “we the people” to retain that brass ring. If we turn our backs and walk away from the right to vote that so many have died for, we have let them win.
Now is our finest hour. We the Moral Conservative Majority have the ultimate trump card in our hand. We have the capacity to dethrone them and there is nothing they can do to keep us from it. We have the election process and the impeachment process at our disposal. All we need to do is stay organized and informed.
We have the ability to feed and support each other knowing that, no one of us has all the answers. The liberals in their superior then thou throne rooms have only themselves. It has been measured that conservatives make up more than three-fourths of our great nation. We come in every political bent; Republican, Democrat, Independent, Libertarian, Constitutional, Green, and so many more.
Set aside your political affiliation and take a moment to focus on your core conservative beliefs. We are the people of the United States of America and we can set the agenda. Let us start by unifying in conservative locations, both in body and on the internet. Each of us has unique talents and knowledge that can help all of us keep our government in check. If each of us does three things we can make a difference and save this nation. All three of these things are in everyone’s reach no matter your race religion or financial standing.
1. Stay informed of what is going on around you.
2. Share and interpret this information with veryone and any one you can.
3. Write letters and hold your representatives feet to the fire, from the neighborhood watch to the President of the United States.
The first one should be a breeze; you live and work where you are. You know those around you and what goes on where you live. You don’t need to stretch much to make a difference.
The second one will require you to actually act on what you believe and know. No matter your specialty, interpret and report to fellow conservatives what you see and hear. The liberal media isn’t going to help us stay informed. We will have to blog and spend time on forums to pass information along. We will have to spend a few minutes each day getting the word out and taking in what is going on elsewhere that may affect us. Use the knowledge and skill of fellow conservatives to keep you informed.
The third one will be our shining star, reminding the pandering power mongers who is really in charge. They won’t make a move against a unified body of conservatives bent on taking away the only thing that really matters to them, power. They will follow lock step as a bull firmly grasped by the ring in his nose, if we stay engaged.
I would like to take this moment to recommend a place to share and build conservative unity, the American Conservative Forum. This is not just a fun hang out, but a place for serious conservatives who want to take America back and hold our leaders accountable. A place for people who are willing to do their part and use their God given talents and skills to keep our government in check, by informing the rest of us so we can act in mass.
Many of us have become disenfranchised from our government and we have cast our one vote away. It is no longer about one vote. It is about all of us, as one, casting a vote for conservative principals totaling epic proportions of conservative presence in American Politics. We have failed to unify for almost one hundred years and we have been given the government we deserve.
Are YOU ready to take it back?
Take your first step. Post, print or email this message to everyone you know. Join the American Conservative Forum and let’s start restoring America.
Sincerely,ablur
